What I'm most impressed by is you found a way to move the camera in a way where not the entire planet was showing, and yet you could still show everything.
Imagine being a saxon living in Wessex in 519, hoping no future to his little kingdom. But after 1300 years, your country conquest more than half of the world
Tak naprawdę to istnieją 2 Angeviny; ten "spowolniony" nazywa się po prostu Angevin, a ten popularny Angevin B, przez co tempo może wydawać się dziwne mimo tego, że ta wersja, która się nie wybiła miała być w domyśle "główna"
Northumbria north of the Tees was most likely not part of the Kingdom of England until the post-Norman era. The Formation of the English Kingdom in the Tenth Century by George Molyneaux and Regional Identities in North-East England, 1300-2000 by Adrian Green and A.J. Pollard, among others, are convincing sources which put forward this argument.
Keep in mind that even though the English and Scottish crowns merged in 1603, they weren't one kingdom until the Acts of Union in 1707 with their own parliaments, laws, and judiciaries so you shouldn't have depicted them owning Scotland until then except during the time of the Commonwealth. And I guess you decided not to map the English Civil War. Also James VI of Scotland would be just James I of England and Ireland.
Britain is a geographical term for just the main island, excluding Ireland and all other islands, including the isle of wight, which is in England. So if you want to be really accurate it'd be the British isles.
@@thomasburn3247 to be pedantic although your right Britain can be short term for the British Isles as a whole. The correct name for our island is Albion. Albion being the largest island of Britain was called Great Britain. Irene (Ireland) being the smaller island was called Little Britain. ✌️
Did it skip Harold Godwinson because technically he was never coronated/annointed? The man died for England and was the last true Anglo-Saxon ruler. He should still be on here as a King
I agree. Elizabeth II was still the Queen in 1952, even though her Coronation wasn't until 1953. It makes you wonder about situations with, say, Mathilda and Queen Jane. And for that matter, Edward IV s father, after he defeated Henry VI.
it is only showing one king per year. I'm guessing it just shows the king who was in power on the 31st of december. Edward the confessor, harold godwinson and william of normady all ruled at england at some point in 1066 but William was crowned on christmas day 1066 so that's why it is showing only william for that year. Edmund Ironside, one of England's greatest warrior kings, isn't showed either because he ruled from april to novemeber in 1016 and King Canute ended up in power before the end of the year so that's why you only see Canute for the year of 1016.
Should have shown other Anglo-Saxon kingdoms And also, England stops existing in the year 1707 due to the acts of union between England and Scotland, ending both kingdoms and forming anew as Britain
France in 2022: haha u smol Britain:grrrr **turns into 1923 briatin cus why not** France: /: Britain: so who you call tiny tiny France: pls dont kill me Britain: nope
You haven't distinguished between the territories of the separate kingdoms of Scotland and Ireland prior to the respective acts of Union. They weren't part of England.
I'm wondering if the English government might have been attempting to establish world government. They really did take a lot of the world, and if not for WWI and WWII they'd probably still have it.
Wessex is england. it is the dynasty that founded England and was actually merged with the crown so its important to show the bloodline all the way back to the beginning
I am impressed by how well the British promote themselves, internationally. They paint red the frozen islands of Canada, Africa where Livingston is lost and India with 560 independent princes, and people believe that the British had a cricket club everywhere. But there are only 10% native speakers of English and less than 10% Christians in the entire Commonwealth. Surely we Spaniards have to learn, and also paint red in Patagonia, Borneo, Guinea and Papua New Guinea, the great plains of the United States, the Amazon, the annexed Portuguese empire... So we have more than 30 million km2! We even had a king in England, and an emperor in Germany at the same time. A Brit would have painted all that red too.
the British Empire was a commercial empire based on trade not a an empire based on spreading christianity. The Spanish empire on the other hand was more keen on converting the natives into Roman catholicism.
@@alexisturnning They were different empires. But the Spanish empire also traded. We changed China's currency, which was paper. They adopted Spanish silver. The 8 real or Spanish dollar was the first world currency between 1500-1800. 300 years. Pound sterling 150 years (1800-1945), as the first world currency. US dollar: 100-120 years. Now comes China. The Spanish dollar is the mother currency of the USA, China and Japan. Spain traded intensively with China, Japan, the Philippines, Vietnam, Taiwan, Indonesia... And we brought Spanish products into Europe. Ships, minerals such as iron, Castilian wool, textiles from Catalonia, weapons, potatoes, tomatoes, pineapples, coffee, tobacco... But it is true that we reinvest 70% of American wealth in America, to convert it into a Western world. 80% in the 18th century. While the British, Dutch and French took almost all the wealth of India, Africa and Indonesia to London, Amsterdam and Paris until almost the 20th century.
